Love this display of books outside Bart’s Books in Ojai. The day I stopped by, there was a book on the second shelf to the right, “Cruel Doubt,” by Joe McGuiness, that my father adapted into a T.V. movie in 1992. Brought back a lot of memories! I never know what I’ll find at Bart’s, but I always manage to walk out with an armful!![]()

As Mother’s Day approaches, I want to thank all the special moms who supported me through the years. Parenting a neurodiverse child is challenging and makes it difficult sometimes to find understanding friends. When I was struggling, long before my child’s ADHD diagnosis, two moms stepped forward and gave me hope and the gift of friendship. This blog is in honor of them.![]()

As Autism Awareness Month ends, I want to give a shout-out to a phenomenal non-profit, The Help Group, in the Los Angeles area, which provides all kinds of services for the autistic and ADHD communities. I’ve attended their annual conference and seminars, and always walked away with help, strategies, and tips for raising my child with ADHD. This Sunday, April 30th, they will be hosting a Special Needs Resource Fair. Link in bio.![]()
The more awareness we raise about autism and ADHD, the more opportunities there are for our children to fulfill their potential!![]()

“Sunsets are loved because they vanish.”

Watching the sun dip below the horizon is one of my favorite ways to start a weekend. It’s those little moments I pause for that give me the most satisfaction in my day. ![]()

Last week’s hikes in the desert were a wonderful way to welcome spring! From snow-capped mountains to the shady oasis and all its natural beauty, I couldn’t stop taking pictures. So grateful for the desert’s endless wonders.![]()
